Walter de Silva launched his eponymous women's footwear line in 2016 after a celebrated career designing for some of the world’s largest automobile brands. The Italian shoemaker combines his love of engineering with a family tradition of cobbling, crafting precise pieces that mix carbon fiber and other high-tech materials with luxurious leather and satin. De Silva’s sophisticated styles are known for their architectural silhouettes, slim stiletto heels, and bold orange insoles.
